As you probably know by now, Christian Bale has had a bittersweet week. Right after The Dark Knight had the biggest opening weekend in movie history, Bale was forced to go to a London police station for questioning in a verbal assault case involving his mother and sister.
Bale’s people issued a statement earlier today asking for everyone to respect his privacy during this difficult time. Hahaha, that’s funny Christian. Anyway, it is now being reported that the fight started because Bale’s sister Sharon asked the actor for $200,000.
The Sun reports that Sharon’s request for money led to an argument…
Christian is a very wealthy young man and was asked to help his sister out financially.
He was asked to loan her 100,000 [pounds] but he refused and that caused an almighty row.
During that row, the women claim, he assaulted them by pushing and shoving them. Both Jenny and Sharon are terribly upset over what happened.
They did not want any publicity and the last thing they wanted to do was wreck his premiere evening. But they say he bullied them.
They are both devastated that it has come to this but want him to be taught a lesson."
Did you know Bale’s mother is a clown? Like, a real circus clown. I just found that out, and it’s pretty hilarious. I didn’t even know clowns still exist. But Sharon works as a computer programmer, so I’m not sure why she’s strapped for cash. Computer programmers make a pretty decent income.
Still, I was reading this one book, and it talked about how all Christians should be generous and share the wealth with those less fortunate. This book talked about giving, about being a “Good Samaritan,” and how all Christians have a responsibility to help their fellow humans. Christian Bale is maybe the most famous Christian I can think of, besides maybe Christian Slater, so he more than anyone should be practicing these lessons. I don’t know. Maybe I’m wrong. You should check out this book, see if you agree. It’s a good book. It’s called “Season of Passion,” by Danielle Steel. Give it a read, it’s great.
